Why do sharks not have swim bladder

1 answer:

4 0

Unlike bony fish, sharks do not have gas-filled swim bladders for buoyancy. Instead, sharks rely on a large liver filled with oil that contains squalene, and their cartilage, which is about half the normal density of bone.

A spinner travels around a circle. The radius is 3 inches. Mike spins the spinner and it travels completely around the circle 5

nignag [31]

Answer:

The spinner travelled 94.2 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question we first need to calculate the length of the circle, that is given by the following formula:

length = 2*pi*r

length = 2*3.14*3 = 18.84 inches

Since the spinner revolved around the circle 5 times, the distance travelled by the tip is the length of the circle multiplied by 5, as shown below:

distance = length*5

distance = 18.84*5 = 94.2 inches

The spinner travelled 94.2 inches.

A tailor has 13 1/2 yards of fabric to use for making costumes. For each costume, he needs 1 1/2 yards of fabric for the top and

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

6 complete costumes

Step-by-step explanation:

he has 27/2 total fabric

1 costume requires 1 2/4 + 3/4 of fabric, which is 2 1/4

we divide 27/2 by 9/4

27/2 x 4/9 = 6

Katen [24]

Answer:

$CI = (0.17 - 0.27)\± 1.65\sqrt{\frac{(0.17)*(0.83) + (0.27)*(0.73)}{200}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n = 200$

$x_1 = 34$ -- City C

$x_2 = 54$ --- City K

Required

Determine the 90% confidence interval

This is calculated using:

$CI = \bar x \± z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}$

Calculating $\bar x$

$\bar x = \bar x_1 - \bar x_2$

$\bar x = \frac{x_1}{n} - \frac{x_2}{n}$

$\bar x = \frac{34}{200} - \frac{54}{200}$

$\bar x = 0.17 - 0.27$

For a 90% confidence level, the z-score is 1.65. So:

$z = 1.65$

Calculating the standard deviation $\sigma$

$\sigma = \sqrt{(\bar x_1)*(1 - \bar x_1) + (\bar x_2)*(1 - \bar x_2) }$

So:

$\sigma = \sqrt{(0.17)*(1 - 0.17) + (0.27)*(1 - 0.27) }$

$\sigma = \sqrt{(0.17)*(0.83) + (0.27)*(0.73)}$

So:

$CI = (0.17 - 0.27)\± 1.65\frac{\sqrt{(0.17)*(0.83) + (0.27)*(0.73)}}{\sqrt {200}}$

$CI = (0.17 - 0.27)\± 1.65\sqrt{\frac{(0.17)*(0.83) + (0.27)*(0.73)}{200}}$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}x+16=37$

63 Jelly Beans

Step-by-step explanation:

The unknown is the number of jelly beans originally in the bag or x

First he had x jelly beans

The he ate one-third of them

$\frac{1}{3}x$

He then ate 16 more jelly beans

$\frac{1}{3}x+16$

This was equal to 37 jelly beans

$\frac{1}{3}x+16=37$

This is the equation

Now solve for x

Subtract 16 from both sides

$\frac{1}{3}x=21$

Multiply both sides by 3

$x=63$
